Coming back and reading this story as an adult really puts a lot of things into perspective that I may not have realized reading it as a kid. It makes in even more heartbreaking. The author not only emerges you into the story but the underlying messages are so important.

Very good. Hard to read a really YA focused book at 31 and not see things as immature. But I loved it.
